Like numbers refer to like elements throughout the description.
    A security arrangement according to an embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to Figs. 1 and 2.
    The security arrangement 1 comprises: a housing 2; a sensor arrangement 3arranged in said housing; a camera device 4 arranged in said housing; and a communication unit 5 arranged in said housing.
    The sensor arrangement 3 is configured to detect movement of a device 6being monitored by the security arrangement 1 and the security arrangement1 is configured to, in response to detection of movement of the device 6,active the camera device 4 and to take a picture. The security arrangement 1is fiirther configured to transmit a picture taken by the camera device 4 to a contact list utilizing the communication unit 5.
    The contact list could e.g. be controlled/updated through a web interface,such that the security arrangement 1 need not be equipped with a direct userinterface with display and/ or keypad. Alternatively, the security arrangement1 is in addition to, or instead of, having a web interface for control thereofequipped with a touch screen (not illustrated). Yet further, the securityarrangement 1 is in addition to, or instead of, having a touch screen equippedwith a key pad for easy use with dedicated buttons for e.g. contacting personson the contact list. Yet an alternative way to manage the security arrangement 1 can be the use of an RFID tag or through a remote control.
    Communication may e.g. be performed through an external unit through wifi,Bluetooth or similar technique, or through cellular communication inbuilt in the security arrangement.
    The security arrangement 1 is preferably a mobile unit, which is attached tothe device 6 during use, which device 6 preferably is a door. Alternatively, thesecurity arrangement 1 is a fixed unit, but an advantage with a mobile unit isthat it is easy to take with you if you visit different places, such as a boat, atrailer and the like. A fixed unit has a known position for the contact list, whereas a mobile unit may be used in many unknown positions.
    A mobile unit preferably comprises positioning means, such a GPS device ora cellular triangulation device, in order for the security arrangement to be able to provide the contact list with positioning information thereof.
    The picture is desired to be taken of a visitor at the door 6. This is e.g. achieved by taking a picture along the door 6, with a wide camera angle.
    The sensor arrangement 3 preferably comprises a vibration detector fordetection of movement of the device 6. Alternatively, the sensor arrangement3 comprises a proximity detector, wherein the security arrangement 1 ismounted near the door frame of a door, and the proximity detector isconfigured to detect when the door 6 is opened by the distance between thedoor frame and the door being increased. Supplementary to a vibration detector, or possibly instead of a vibration detector, the sensor arrangement 3 may comprise a sensor connected to e.g. a door bell of the door, or a door lockof the door, or a door handle of the door, to detect and estimate when a visitor is at the door.
    A suitable time between e.g. a door handle is used and a picture is take maye.g. be five seconds. Further, the camera device may be equipped with facerecognition and take a picture of the visitor when a face has been detected after the sensor has detected moving door.
    The sensor arrangement 3 is preferably configured to monitor motion in anarea 7 at the security arrangement 1, and the security arrangement 1 isconfigured to transmit a notification to the contact list utilizing thecommunication unit 5 when no motion in the area has been detected during apredetermined period of time. The predetermined period of time is in theorder of hours/ days compared to minutes/ seconds. A suitable period of time for monitoring non-activity of the area could e.g. be 24 hours.
    The sensor arrangement 3 then comprises a motion detector for detection ofmotion in the area 7. The motion detector may e.g. be realized by a lasersensor, monitoring a straight line, an optic sensor, monitoring a wide angleup to 18o°, or an acoustic sensor, monitoring a large space such a whole room8. Alternatively, when the door sensor comprises a door handle or door locksensor, this sensor may also be used instead of a motion detector fordetection of when no motion in the area has been detected during apredetermined period of time. In this case the area will be defined by opening / closing of the door.
    The sensor arrangement 3 preferably comprises a microphone for registeringsound, and the security arrangement 3 is then configured to transmitregistered sound to the contact list utilizing the communication unit 5. Such amicrophone may be used both for recording sound at the door 6 forregistering what is said at the door 6, as well as monitoring motion in the area 7, which in this case covers the whole room 8. A fiirther utilization of a microphone is for detection of a door bell sounding, by being programmed to identify the door bell the security arrangement 1 presently is positioned at.
    The sensor arrangement 3 preferably also comprises a tampering sensor fordetecting removal of the security arrangement 1 from a device 6 it is attachedto, and the security arrangement 1 is then configured to transmit anotification of tempering to the contact list utilizing the communication unit5 when indicated by the tampering sensor. By preferably having at least twoindependent persons on the contact list transmitting a predetermined code tothe security arrangement 1 prior to removal thereof, no tamperingnotification will be transmitted from the security arrangement 1 when removed from an attached position.
    Use of the security arrangement 1 comprises the following steps: detectingmovement of a device 6 being monitored by the security arrangement; takinga picture; and transmitting a taken picture to a contact list. Preferably, usealso comprises the following steps: monitoring motion in an area 7 at thesecurity arrangement; and transmitting a notification to the contact list whenno motion in the area has been detected during a predetermined period of time.
    The security arrangement 1 is particularly useful for isolated people, thosewho have difficulties in moving around, and those who have a rather small acquaintance.
    Everybody on the contact list may be notified when a visitor is at the door,when a predetermined period of time has lapsed without a monitored personhave been detected by a motion detector, when the security arrangement istampered with, or when the monitored person manually desires to contacteverybody on the contact list. A visitor will be recorded by e.g. voice and picture, possibly also a stream of pictures.
    Everybody on the contact list then have the possibility to check if the visitor isok or if the visitor is someone who should not be there. In the latter case, an early opportunity to send someone to the place of the security arrangement is provided. In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, a personon the contact list who has been notified by the security arrangement may byutilization of a predefined code, or dialing a telephone number, trigger thesecurity arrangement to trigger an alarm on site, to e.g. scare away anintruder or prevent an ongoing crime. Further, a call may also be connectedto SOS.
    By the security arrangement comprising positioning means, such as GPS,everybody on the contact list may be updated of the position thereof. Aposition need only to be transmitted to the contact list when the securityarrangement is not in a mounted position. Positioning information ispreferably activated both at voluntary/authorized removal of the security arrangement as well as when being tampered with.
    The security arrangement can preferably both transmit to and receive datafrom persons on the contact list. A person on the contact list may e.g. receivestatus updates and similar notification from the security arrangement to atelevision device, a computer, a mobile device such as smart phone, or otherdevice possible to receive notifications. When a person on the contact list hasa device comprising a camera device, visual communication through the security arrangement is possible.
    A security arrangement according to the present invention will be available under the name SecureonTM.
    The invention has mainly been described above with reference to a fewembodiments. However, as is readily appreciated by a person skilled in theart, other embodiments than the ones disclosed above are equally possible within the scope of the invention, as defined by the appended patent claims.
